the badges are actually from a UK Mk1 cooper and the seats look like clubman 1275GT seats.

the grille is either a Mk2 cooper or a later rover cooper item.

the indicator lenses would suggest a non UK spec but they could have been changed at any time in any country.

it could be a non UK build CKD (completely knocked down) car where the main components were shipped as a kit and finished with non UK parts (a common practice)

I'm thinking that someone has tried to make a cooper replica but got all the details wrong :lol:

cooper ??? NO :lol:
